Self confidence is the key, you are strong, and also always remember that whatever happens, it not the end of the world, not a big deal.

The answer for all of life's problems can only be found in one person JESUS the Christ (Messiah). This is my personal experience. It's not like life is 'rosy' or successful' for me at the moment. I am currently unemployed and am a post graduate in engineering and a year back I had given a tithe of one months salary for the spread of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

God loves you as if you were the only person on the face of the earth- so complete is His love. We thirst for love/respect/ esteem from those around us. This is an inbuilt need in our DNA because only in turning to Jesus , we can have true peace.

I used to be jealous and insecure all the time. Insecure about my job, about my relationships with friends; jealous about people who are more successful than me. But I am delivered of those problems. Yes, I am praying more and spending more time with God. Sometimes I may get a thought of jealousy or insecurity; now the strategy shown to me by God is to quote suitable Scripture verses and then the temptation goes away.

I am already beginning to see God's blessings in every area of my life. I am being called to play music during worship services, help the poor and above all God has enabled me to hear His soft voice in every area of my life. I am not perfect, God is patient and is helping me every moment of the day. There are thoughts of pride, greed, sloth etc that I am still being pruned / disciplined of , by God.

God bless you and lead you to salvation in Him. Amen

I used to be jealous and insecure about myself all the time. Those two come hand in hand. I talked to a psych about it and he said jealousy is born out of your own mind. You get to thinking that you + your bf/gf equals your whole being, and you can only be happy when this person is around. Why rely on someone else to make you happy? He also said, that when the sig. other is not around/not answering calls that is a trigger to get upset and therefore, JEALOUS.

all in all, jealousy is just your body's response to a trigger. Just calm down, tell yourself that everything is ok, stop over analyzing and over time the jealousy will subside. Talk to a psych or group counseling. It did wonders for me and my insecurities.

hey, you come over and mow my lawns.
